Panhellenic Philanthropy
We all see the great things that sororities are doing around campus and throughout Starkville. But, many of us do not know what they are putting all this hard work towards! This large group of ladies are very important throughout the campus of Mississippi State University and are very involved throughout their sororities and in other various organizations on campus. Each one of these sororities is recognized on a national level and show leadership throughout Mississippi. By each one of these ladies being involved in their sororities, they are active participants in community service and philanthropy events.
Each of these sororities is part of the great Panhellenic group here at MSU and are all involved in a great cause throughout their organization. Each one supports a Philanthropy and raises money, donates their time, and works hard to help out each one of these philanthropy organizations. It is such a great bond of sisters that we see, but let us take the time to find out a little more about these different groups of ladies!
Lets just start from A and go to Z! Starting with Alpha Delta Pi, which is the most recent Panhellenic sorority on campus, they support the Ronald McDonald House Charities. This RMHC supports Ronald McDonald House, Care Mobiles, and Ronald McDonald Family Rooms! They have been supporting RMHC since 1979.
Next on the list is Chi Omega, who supports the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Since the beginning of their alliance, Chi Omega has shown support through volunteering, time, and donations. Delta Delta Delta sorority officially adopted St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital in 1999. Since then they have worked together to make sure that children get the best care possible! Delta Gamma's national philanthropy is working with Service for Sight. They look to improve vision globally. One of the ways that Delta Gamma works to raise awareness about Service for Sight is through their Anchor Week that they hold each year.
The Kappa Delta sorority at MSU supports the Girl Scouts of America and Prevent Child Abuse America. They hold Shamrock Events to help gain support towards their cause. Much of the money that they raise at these events is kept around the area to help prevent child abuse.
Phi Mu works with the Children's Miracle Network Hospital. The Kappa Alpha chapter of Phi Mu here at MSU supports the LeBonheur Children's Medical Center in Memphis Tenn. Pi Beta Phi has an annual Arrow Week where they raise money and awareness towards their philanthropy. They recently worked with Ward-Stewart, an elementary school here in Starkville, by volunteering every week. They called it the CAR Program, and two to three volunteers went every week to the elementary school!
Last, but not least, is Zeta Tau Alpha. Locally and nationally, they work with Breast Cancer Education and Awareness. Every October they hold their Think Pink week that helps raise support for this great philanthropy! They hope that through the support they give this organization they are helping early detection and awareness of breast cancer!

The Battle for the Golden Egg
With a tradition here at Mississippi State that runs as deep as the Cowbell, MSU fans are ecstatic about hosting this years Egg Bowl against the University of Mississippi. But, where did the "Battle for the Golden Egg" begin? In 1926 the University of Mississippi and Mississippi A&M College, later changed to Mississippi State University, played each other at the Ole Miss football stadium. Fans from both schools were cheering on their teams, but students from Ole Miss were expecting a loss that year, which actually resulted in their team winning. Upset and cheering fans went into a frenzy over the loss of MSU and the win for Ole Miss. Fans stormed the field and went into an uproar, which resulted in players and fans getting injured. So as a way to find peace, the Golden Egg trophy was presented. It was an agreement from both student bodies that a game would not result in outraged chaos again. The teams played each other for a few more years, but it was not until 1991, that the Egg Bowl would become a significant game for the two teams. That year Mississippi State hosted Ole Miss in the Battle for the Golden Egg, the first time they had played each other since 1972, and since then the Egg Bowl trophy remains with the winning team and each team rotates hosting the other year after year.
But this year, Mississippi State is looking to win back the Egg Bowl trophy and bring it back home to Starkville. This years big game is held on Thanksgiving Day for the first time since 2003. So what does this mean for the Bulldog family and football team at Mississippi State? It means we want to bring home a victory and to be the host for the Egg Bowl trophy until another game in 2014.
This years game ball was even ran all the way from Oxford to Starkville by the ROTC of Ole Miss and Mississippi State, it was passed off Monday afternoon in Calhoun City, and has now reached Starkville. What an amazing event to kick-start such an exciting week for both schools! The photo was posted on HAIL STATE's Instagram page, along with updates of where the ROTC and ball were throughout the day.
The Egg Bowl is always one of the coldest games of the year, but its one that no one wants to miss. With such a strong tradition for both schools, the 2013 Egg Bowl will be an exciting one for sure!
Here at Town and Gown we hope that you enjoy this week of Thanksgiving and get out on Thursday to cheer on your favorite team!
